IT is difficult not to be impressed by the dignity of a man such as John Galvin who leads two other Tory councillors in York and who publicly agonises (Letters, October 3) that he cannot cope with the policy reports that councils generate.

Could this be one of the reasons that the three Conservatives choose not to vote Rod Hills and his Labour colleagues out of office? They have the opportunity to do so if they wish.
